Environmental Education
Only by continuously understanding sustainability-related issues can we implement a path of sustainable development.
In recent years, as environmental awareness has risen, plastic has become a target of widespread criticism. However, until a suitable alternative material is found, plastic still plays an indispensable role. By using and disposing of plastic correctly, we can hope to minimize the environmental damage it causes.
Since 2018, we have been actively promoting environmental education, dedicated to sharing sustainable knowledge about plastics and other materials with employees and the public. From production to consumption, we aim to practice sustainability principles. Only through these efforts can we truly achieve the goal of a circular economy, minimizing environmental threats.
Educational Concepts and Models
Internal Education – Dandelion Program
We have named our internal sustainability training program “Dandelion,” symbolizing the spread of knowledge and the power of change, much like dandelion seeds dispersing and blooming. Since its inception in 2021 with the Happiness Lectures, followed by the ESG Workshop in 2022, and monthly 10–15 minute short talks in 2023, Dandelion has taken various forms. In each session, different departments are responsible for brainstorming topics, combining their expertise with new sustainability knowledge to share with colleagues. We hope to plant the seeds of sustainability in the hearts of our employees, gradually embedding the importance of sustainability.
External Visits
By allowing visitors to see the plastic manufacturing process firsthand, we demonstrate how we implement ESG in product design, waste handling, and hardware equipment. These visits are complemented by lectures and exchange sessions, aiming to provide new perspectives on plastics and foster a shared vision and expectations for sustainable packaging.
External Lectures/Interviews
We eagerly engage with the outside world in various formats, seizing every opportunity to tell our story and convey accurate knowledge about plastics.
Actual achievements
A total of 11 internal education “Dandelion” events were held, with 185 participants, which is fewer than in the previous year. This decrease was mainly because our focus shifted to external advocacy to amplify our impact. Furthermore, “Dandelion” will gradually transform, with future plans to introduce online learning modes to facilitate more flexible and long–term dissemination of sustainability knowledge. Regarding external visits, a total of 13 events were organized in 2024, attracting 633 participants.
